From: Easy Slow Cooker Superfoods Recipes (Healthy Slow Cooker Recipes)
Avocadoes are high in healthy fats which keep you full and help your body to absorb other nutrients. This recipe is very unique and full of flavor - the avocado and sour cream produces a smooth, creamy texture while the cayenne pepper gives it a little extra kick.
Serves: 4

4 cup vegetable stock
1 small onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
4 avocados, ripe
1 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp salt, if using
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
Cilantro leaves

Blend the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, salt and cayenne pepper in a blender then put into the slow cooker.
